Underbelly

Underbelly is an Australian television true crime-drama which originally broadcast on the Nine Network. Each series contains 13 episodes and is based on real-life events including the Melbourne gangland killings between 1995-2004, the Griffith drug trade between 1976-1987, and the Kings Cross scene between 1988-1999. The first series is based on the book Leadbelly: Inside Australia's Underworld, by The Age journalists John Silvester and Andrew Rule.[1] A fourth series titled Underbelly: Razor,which is based on Sydney's infamous razor-gang wars between 1927 and 1936, is currently airing. A fifth (as yet untitled) series is reportedly being planned. Three telemovies called The Underbelly Files have also been made: Tell Them Lucifer was Here, on the hunt for the killers of two police officers in 1998, Infiltration, on an Australian police detective's infiltration of the Calabrian Mafia, and The Man Who Got Away, about the only man who escaped from Bangkok's Klong Prem prison. All three aired on the Nine Network in February 2011.
